Description Current IQ tests typically have standard scores such that the mean score is 100 with each standard deviation from the mean counting for 15 IQ points.[1] The plot shows, assuming that such scores have a normal distribution, the percentage of people getting a score versus the score itself, from 55 to 145 IQ, that is over a span of six standard deviations. Spans are represented with different colors for each standard deviation above or below the mean. The plot was created with the following gnuplot code:

# Normal distribution:

P(x) = exp(-(x - mu)**2 / (2 * sigma**2)) / (sqrt(2 * pi) * sigma) * 100
# By sigma intervals:
oddsi(x) = (int(abs(x - mu) / sigma) % 2) ^ (x < mu)
Pm(x) =               (x == mu)  ? P(x) : 1/0 # sample at mu
Po(x) = ( oddsi(x) && (x != mu)) ? P(x) : 1/0 # samples in odd sigma intervals
Pe(x) = (!oddsi(x) && (x != mu)) ? P(x) : 1/0 # samples in even sigma intervals
